25 July: It's My Party
Four different kinds of gourmet Macaroni and Cheese. Stacks upon stacks of different finger sandwiches, with the yards worth of crusts used to make a couple of heated trays of bread pudding. A pineapple-banana-pecan cake possibly bigger than the birthday girl herself. A small table of vegan stuff, just in case.

Cindy couldn't stop grinning at it. Had she found awesome caterers or what?

The band specialized in swing covers of hard rock songs, but could play just about anything. There was a dance floor. All her friends from school were there, dressed to the eights.

Of course, all Cindy's friends from school didn't really fill up the little reception hall. And she certainly didn't have a big family. But that was okay, more room for her ~~soon-to-be-colleagues~~ fellow super-brats.

And so she scurried, from arrival to arrival, for cheerful welcomes.

	"I guess he would. I don't have control issues or anything. I've got a good handle on them, don't even get nosebleeds." She nods. "Mmhmm. The moratorium expires today. I can start exploring my options." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"That's good to hear, but always nice to talk to an expert with similar powers. You might also look into the Titans or JSA - they both do a fair amount of field training." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"The Titans are a bit crowded with people who are really new at it these days, from what it sounds like. I kinda feel like I'd be making it overkill. Hadn't really thought of the JSA." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He nods. "Well, the Titans did get their start as the teen titans... newcomers are part of their tradition. The JSA trainees have been making a pretty good showing... and have things set up for training newcomers, ever since Stargirl and all showed up." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"...Yeah. Good point." Cindy tries to keep her voice schooled evenly. She was putting a lot of effort into essentially branding herself as responsible, shrewd, and totally on top of things. She had to avoid sounding disappointed just because an idea wasn't going just the way she'd envisioned. She had to take the advice under consideration in a mature way as shrewd individuals do.

"I'll see about getting in touch with J'onn. Thanks."

	"Cool. Hey, got you a party favor." And she grabs from the appropriate table the neatly rolled up set of papers indicating anonymous donations at well-reputed local Kansas and Metropolis food banks. She flashes a small smile. "I figured since it was for you, Anonymous'd be about right. Just my guess." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Wow.... thanks, its perfect. And yeah... I appreciate that." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Great. Okay, gotta scurry around for a bit. Enjoy the food, and I'm sure you can find somebody to dance if you want to." She'll smile again and then hurry over to other people. (Reply to this)(Parent)
